Looks like for the OM611 engine there are a range of options.

Use the first link above to find MB specification for OM611, then use the second link to look up the specification document for oil grade and vendor.

5W-, 10W-, and 15W-40 are all specified. The oil container needs to have the MB specification number written on it to be compliant with MB.

I totally agree with chassis for the oil. For the coolant be sure to only use MB coolant. MB cooling systems contain lots of aluminum and because of that aren't compatible with non MB coolants. Non MB coolants can do serious damage to your cooling system. I've read too many various MB forums horror stories about people using non MB coolant and suffering damage as a result.
